I have not tried recently, and I know right this second would not do it justice; it's been getting moved a lot... x-x

Will give a try if it becomes reasonable to demonstrate in the near future. ^^

I think it's still way too soon to say for certain, but I think the healing time on these might be a bit more than the V1, from my own personal observations along with those stated here.But I don't trust that assumption to actually be true yet. More time is needed.

If anyone has any advice on something like, a cream that helps promote healing in a local area, it would be appreciated! I would love to know of anything that could be used topically to help all this heal.

I'm not a doctor, but maybe something like Arnica oil. They use it for sports injuries (muscles & joints). Or vitamin-e oil for tissue restoration although I think that is more for the surface. Maybe coupled with an oral anti-inflammatory?

If you are in a state where cannabis products are legal, topical CBD ointments or an RSO-type preparation could be pretty helpful. I'm aware that there hasn't been extensive or clear research done on a lot of the compounds contained within cannabis, and people have mixed opinions on their use.
I can anecdotally say, however, that I have found RSO-type preparations (cold, full-plant extracts using alcohol) to increase the rate of topical healing on abrasions.
Just be cautious, however, as it could very well absorb through open wounds and have the potential to make you high if you weren't prepared to be so. Also be careful about the quality of the RSO; a more ethical manufacturer will list the alcohol types used for extraction and specify that it won't contain any harmful solvents.

Aside from that, brutal implant job. That took a lot of courage! It looks cool so far.

@Heretic Cali. ^^ Also have a medical card. May look into CBD, it's uses don't seem to have much to not like... lol... .3.

A co worker passed me off a "boo boo cream" (it's some kind of home-made ointment), it resembles like a triple antibacterial ointment? But it has something in it I'm really liking, because it's not like it hurts but it definitely makes it feel better. ^^

It's been in his family since his grandparents were kids. Again, I know homeopathy isn't the golden rule here... but it's a nice ointment that seems to be helping. ^^

I'm 2 weeks into healing my V1 Firefly Tattoo implant. Breakdown of thoughts/review:
A) Cyberise.me is just excellent for customer support/service and making you feel important.
B) the included installation kit, went beyond what was needed, unexpectedly excellently thought out and appreciated.
C) installation had ouch, of course, but not as bad as you'd think for that syringe size.
D) healed comfortably and fast.

Light @ 2 weeks is enough for my wife to see at night! Or friends, in a dark room... Not yet bar dark. I placed on my collar bone.

I look forward to at least one more (maybe 2?) V1s and look very forward to V2.
Cheers!

@Semilovr12 do you think it's the lead back sheet doing it? Part of the light from V1 maybe because it's simply lighting up more akin around the area... The same way when we put our finger over a flashlight it still glows bright red?

updoot as well: Thing has healed amazingly. It's visible now in dark evening light, not needed fulldark. Still hard to photo though. Seems i may never get to show it in pictures, just in person.

That sounds good! Mine is very visible in a room with all the lights on if I hold it in the shadows. But it is not implanted yet. Should be going in this coming week hopefully.

Can't see anything even in a darkroom at this stage... hoping i didnt put it in too deep.
Will have video footage soon and here is a picture of the "damage" from this morning. (72 hours of healing ish)

I'm really hoping to get my hands on a V2, still waiting to hear more about the brightness as compared to the V1. It seems like it should be substantially brighter. I've found the recent posts rather surprising.

My V1 is visible from about 20 feet in darkness.

My V2 is really bright inside the syringe. Here is a pic of me holding it while standing in my lounge. The overhead light is on. But my back is to it so there is some shade cast. this picture does not even do it justice. I have not had it implanted yet but will provide feedback once that is done!
